Level 3 Health & Safety

3 day accreditated course

The Level 3 Award in Health and Safety in the Workplace is intended principally for those who are operating in a supervisory or managerial role. Qualification holders will have gained a wide range of knowledge on health and safety law, the hazards present in a workplace and how to implement effective and necessary controls. The course will equip candidates with the skills necessary for the effective supervision of staff. It will also focus on the importance of the health and safety culture of a business which will be an invaluable resource to those taking the qualification.

This course is applicable for any private or public sector working environment. Supervisors and managers have legal and moral obligations to ensure health and safety within a business and this includes obligations to employees, contractors, suppliers and members of the public. They will also be able to take responsibility for ensuring the competency of the workforce and for identifying hazards, implementing controls and taking appropriate corrective action when necessary. Furthermore, holders of the Level 3 Award will assist businesses to demonstrate their legal requirement to engage a ‘competent person’.

The Level 3 Award in Health and Safety in the Workplace qualification is recognized by The Health and Safety Executive, Independent Auditors and Enforcement Officers.
